Located in Downtown Central, it is bounded by Houston Street and 14th Street on the south and north respectively, by Bowery on the east and Seventh Avenue on the west. The neighborhood lies south of Flat Iron District and north of SoHo and sandwiched by East and West Village.

Oftentimes referred to simply as “The Village,” this cosmopolitan downtown area centers on Washington Square, with a magnificent, dog-friendly park built with a large fountain area and an aesthetic arch built in 1892. If you’re looking for other places to stroll on a lazy Saturday afternoon or escape the tall structures that dominate the surrounding areas, you can wander around the streets of Greenwich Village. This historic neighborhood is known for its outdoor cafes, restaurants and windy European-like pathways. The buildings here allow more sunshine to reach the streets, which offers a calmer and more convenient atmosphere. Walk around and you’ll discover several smaller parks, secret courtyards and small gardens hiding between lavish townhouses in the residential blocks.

The Village offers many modern sports conveniences such as “The Cage” on West 4th Street and many other city playgrounds. It also hosts the primary campus of New York University. The uniquely designed, castle-like Jefferson Market Library along the Avenue of the Americas is an excellent place for bookworms. Every year at the end of October, the Village Halloween Parade takes to the streets of Greenwich Village with an audience of millions – the biggest Halloween event in the entire country.

Living in The Village also means that you’ll be neighbors to many celebrities including Liv Tyler, Julianne Moore, Jon Stewart, and Uma Thurman. If you see the secret service up and down West 9th Street, don’t be alarmed as this is where former President George W. Bush and daughter Barbara Pierce Bush now resides.
